As I tweeted, last round was pretty straight-forward. The only real upset was Hawthorn finding form against Collingwood, and the draw between Richmond and North Melbourne put a bit of a spanner in the works. In hindsight, I should have taken into account Hawthorn’s good recent record against the Pies, but that’s footy. I guess I was wrong with the call on the Kangaroos, I said it could really go either way, yet, it didn’t. Haha. Most of my multi’s came through and I had a good, profitable weekend. I hope your bets paid off!

This week looks a lot tougher, but I see some value in a few games. I’ve tipped the majority of the home teams this week, except for Melbourne against Sydney at Manuka Oval. Carlton have beaten Collingwood in their past 3 encounters, and Chris Judd looks back to his best. My tip is for Fevola to have a day out and kick the winning score in a close match.

Fremantle should be too strong for West Coast, and I think anything over $1.60 is good value. If Sandilands is back in, which is almost a given, Freo should win most of the hitouts and clearances. It looks to me like the Eagles are entering “list management” mode, so it could be a big margin.

Here are the rest of my tips in bold, along with the best available odds for each team.
